Advent Film Workshop
Now We Bring It To You...
After a two-year hiatus, the Advent Film Workshop is coming back to your neighborhood. Just get a dozen local filmmakers to attend and Advent co-founder, George Escobar, will bring the workshop to you.
Get professional-level film training that’s not available anywhere. We’ll teach you how to write, produce, finance, direct, and distribute feature-length movies that can make an impact no matter what your budget.
Our 2-day workshop is designed for anyone considering film as a career or is already a working professional who wants to sharpen their skills. You’ll learn the advantages and disadvantages of film school programs, financing options, distribution contracts, investor acquisition, story development, production management. Basically, you will know the key elements of making and distributing movies from start to finish.
This workshop is also ideal for adults (with film experience or not) who want to switch careers or bolster their media career or ministry toward feature filmmaking.​​

Screenwriting
From a Christian Worldview
There are dozens of books on screenwriting available. But none of them teach the craft from a Christian worldview. That's why Advent's approach to teaching screenwriting is unique. We purposely strive to make our storytelling differentiated with our fidelity to Scripture. And yet, our stories are not preachy. They're authentic.
Learn how to write powerful and engaging screenplays. After you purchase the recorded screenwriting webinar, Advent's co-founder, George Escobar, will send you a personal email with links to the course.

E-BOOK - FILMMAKING FOR CHRISTIANS
A 500-page VOLUME
​
There is no other book like FILMMAKING FOR CHRISTIANS. It's not an "outsiders" view of Hollywood (as in OUTSIDE HOLLYWOOD by Isaac Botkin) or an "insiders" guide to Hollywood (as in HOW TO SUCCEED IN HOLLYWOOD by Ted Baehr). FILMMAKING FOR CHRISTIANS sits in the middle. It balances the tension between being plugged-in to the film industry, yet supports the need for Christian filmmakers to offer an alternative to Hollywood fare.
The book also covers practical aspects of the filmmaking process: business, legal, finance, sales, marketing, distribution, and production. FILMMAKING FOR CHRISTIANS is ideal for aspiring film students, their parents, and media professionals looking to pursue feature filmmaking.
